The Jags are in good shape. They built their roster last year with a ton of cap space

I know, I just don't like to think about it.
We may be late to the party, but we are at the party. - LOL
Haha, I’m really not ahead of myself. The Ramsey contract reworking just came in. It reduced his 2023 cap number by $12.9 million. Meaning we have close to $18 million in space, rather than the $15 million I said. I was overly conservative…
According to PFT, the Dolphins re-did Ramsey's contract and instead of his hit being $17 million this season it is now only $4.11 million, a difference of $12.89 million. So (not counting David Long's contract) we should have closer to $20 million I believe.

Inside the new Jalen Ramsey deal - ProFootballTalk
The details of the new Jalen Ramsey deal are in.As expected, he has picked up significant new guarantees. As expected, he has reduced his cash in 2023, in order to create more cap space. As expected, we have the numbers.Ramsey was due to make $17 million in 2023, $18.5 million in 2024, and $19.5...

This assumes Ogbah, Baker and WIlson are still on the roster in 2024. Those three contracts alone would clear $31mm.

Someone seems to know what they are doing.
I think that pisses off the "Lemmings" the most.
Keep up the good work Mr. Grier.
Bite on that you "Lemmings"! - LOL
Trades - Great
Cap - So far, so good
He drafted Hunt, Holland, Phillips, Waddle, Wilkins. Can't complain about a lot of his picks. But when he's missed, he's missed so, so bad. Iggy, Eich, AJ. If we had even decent decent guys with those picks. Damn, we would really have something

Just a thought, but I think the Wilkins extension gets done after June 1.
10 a.m. update: The Dolphins have about $15 to $17 million in cap space; we’ll know the precise figure when David Long’s two year, $11 million contract hits the NFL wire. The Dolphins were at $29 million after restructuring Bradley Chubb, Terron Armstead and Tyreek Hill. They acquired Jalen Ramsey but restructured his contract to drop his cap hit from $17 million to $4.1 million. Contracts for Salvon Ahmed, Mike White and Duke Riley dropped the cap space to about $20 million. Long’s contract likely leaves Miami’s space in the $15 million to $17 million range.

Damn, we really do have something. - LOL
I'm including:
1) Iggy - We will see this year, or maybe he becomes trade fodder - either way is fine with me.
2) Eich - incomplete as of yet. Let's see what happens this year with the offensive line. We are good and getting better. It's somewhat of a crap shoot as to his growing into the position or being a waste. Look at how hard and expensive it is to ge good FA OL players. We are more likely to improve with who we have then "pick a winner" in FA or the draft?
3) AJ has, IMO, been over demonized and many have failed to observe his improvement.
There, that's better.

We can spend to zero in free agency because we'll get Byron Jones' cap space after June 1.
Over the cap has us just under 20 million
